The fifteen articles republished here exemplify the many directions
Robert Black's research in Renaissance studies has taken. The first
five studies look at Renaissance humanism, in particular at its
origins, and the concept of the Renaissance as well as the theory
and practice of historical writing. Black also updates his
monograph on the Florentine chancellor, Benedetto Accolti.
Machiavelli is the subject of three articles, focusing on his
education and career in the Florentine chancery. Next come Black's
seminal studies of Arezzo under Florentine rule, revealing the
triangular relationship between centre, periphery and the Medici
family. Finally, two articles on political thought examine the
relative merits of monarchical and republican government for
political thinkers on both sides of the Alps.
